Xamarin.

No. Xamarin focuses on mobile apps, not desktop. Also, you have to chose between Forms which is ugly everywhere, and Native which require a non trivial understanding of each underlying platform.

WinUI and UWP seem like desktop to me, plus there are plenty of other ones,

Just like with Qt, Flutter, wxWidgets, Gtk+, Swing and JavaFX, Forms is only ugly when one cannot bother having designers on the team.
